Investing - February 2007

A finance guy was telling me that you could invest money into a ROTH IRA for your kids that could later be withdrawn for college penalty free. I want to know if this is true and a resource that I can educate myself on it. thanks

I don't get it. Increased profits/earnings, record growth, global expansion...yet the stock goes down. I obviously don't understand the dynamics of the stock market and the triggers. You would think those things would make a stock rise...but that's obviously not the case. Anybody got any insight on what causes this inverted stock reaction to positive financials?

Im thinking of moving my pension to a BGI Global Equity (40:60) Index with 60% of investment going to uk markets and 40% going to overseas markets and also putting some in property, by investing in business properties that may grow through rent and capital values, with my money being reinvested to increase the value of the units. I do not have the foggiest idea about what i just said, this way of investing in my pension sounds good so i have just typed it from a book. I would like opinions on my ideas. Thanks

I'm doing a problem where i'm calc'ing how much i should be willing to pay now (present value) for an annuity that has an interest payment (discount) of varying amounts. The high the i goes, calcs telll me the less I should give in money right now.

If its got a higher interest rate wouldn't it be worth more in the future, so why would I pay less?
